Twice daily on a Dash doesn’t equate to success on a daily Airbus. Think about it. Twice daily.

Twice daily (in this context) means you can get there and back in a day. It gives choice of departure or return. 120 people in two Dashes doesn’t mean 120 in the Airbus because X number will travel from elsewhere because the times don’t suit them. Or, the Airbus will full but of low-yielding leisure traffic which doesn’t have the same economic benefits.
